The Hobbies Thread!!!

What are your favourite hobbies? How involved do you get with them? Any cool stories associated with them? Let us know about them!

My favourite hobby is bowling. I am very much dedicated to it (been competing for 8 years). A cool story I have is about my first day ever bowling. I was 8 years old and intimidated by the atmosphere. I didn't know if I'd like it, but after that day I knew for sure. My team-mates were very friendly, and showed me how to bowl, by the end of the day I had 3 games of 71. Not bad for a rookie on his first day.

How about you?

I used to golf all the time until I messed up my knee, hopefully next summer I can get back on the links. Same goes for backpacking/hiking.

I'm an avid photographer, which I guess would be my main hobby. And now that I have the project car, I'm guessing that will consumer quite a bit of my time too, especially when the race season starts in April.

My hobbies include playing videogames, sketching and photo manipulation with Adobe Photoshop. I'm only active in videogames though.

I also collect stuff, scale models of cars to be exact. From the common 1:64 Hot Wheels to the 1:18's. Only have 4 1:18's though. The rest of my 1:18's and 1:24's were battered when I was a child. I regret it now.

My hobbies are collecting scale model cars, from Hot Wheels to Minichamps. I also collect car brochures, lanyard, F1 Merchandise including shirts, caps and accessories... A lot but those are the ones that's currently running.

Not sure if it can be classed as a hobby, but i enjoy organising meets/events etc for the Nissan Skyline club i pretty much run (www.southernskylines.com).

Ditto for motorsport events, but i love doing them when i get the chance/can afford to.

I like playing video games but generally only stick to the series of games these days (GT, Forza, GTA, Metal Gear Solid, Uncharted, Call of Duty etc). Can't remember the last time i rented a game out - don't get as much time to play anymore.

I (kinda) like keeping my websites (www.skylineobsession.com) online but have been real slack since 2006 and only now am i starting to work on them again.

Kinda collect model cars, but don't have the money anymore, and am becoming too picky with flaws in some models (like Hotwheels/Matchbox cars that have the front or rear lights painted only, instead of both - that's a no buy for me!).

Building plastic model cars. I can basically build up a car how I want it, without spending a lot of dough like I would with a real vehicle. Plus I like challenging myself to build better.
